I work on old farm equipment a decent amount (pre 1950s) and it’s hard to find places that will do brake and clutch re-lines because of the asbestos. I resorted to drilling the rivets myself before taking the shoe or disk to the shop. All I do is coat the whole thing in oil and keep the oil on it as I drill, then dunk the part in gas. As for dust in the drum or bell housing I take a brush that’s dripping in oil and lather the whole thing, then spray it down with solvent with a big pan under it, then dump it in a used oil container. I mean I get it, but if you handle everything in a smart way to avoid airborne dust you’re fine.

I started working on cars, you actually drilled out rivets on the shoes and pads and installed those linings. It is a wonder I don't have lung cancer, our shop would remove the drums and blow out the dust with compressed air, no mask or anything. I can't believe that guy just scooped up a bucket of friable asbestos with out at least a dust mask. I guess they blamed all the lung cancer on smoking.
@mohabatkhanmalak11614 жыл бұрын
I think the other compounds in the brake lining mixture stabilized the asbestos fibres by holding them together, even in brake dust. Even in home insulation claddings it is safe UNTIL there is a break and the microscopic fibers are dispersed in the air and are breathed.

Here's the issue: Tens of thousands of films similar to this one have been lost forever -- destroyed -- and many others are at risk. Our company preserves these precious bits of history one film at a time. How do we afford to do that? By selling them as stock footage to documentary filmmakers and broadcasters. If we did not have a counter, we could not afford to post films like these online, and no films would be preserved. It's that simple. So we ask you to bear with the watermark and timecodes. In the past we tried many different systems including placing our timer at the bottom corner of our videos. What happened? Unscrupulous KZbin users downloaded our vids, blew them up so the timer was not visible, and re-posted them as their own content! We had to use content control to have the videos removed and shut down these channels.
